7 PM on April 30th, for
Meditation, and a Dharma
Talk by Robert Thurman
Here is the link to this online gathering
After 30 minutes of meditation, we will listen to a conversation with Robert Thurman and Scott Snipe from the How to Train a Happy Mind podcast. In this episode, Robert talks about his new book “Wisdom is Bliss”. We learn why the Buddha was an educator and scientist, not a religious prophet. They also discuss why Buddhism isn’t a belief system, but a direct experience that reveals the pure beauty and joy of reality itself. You can preview the talk here.
Robert (Bob) Thurman was the first Westerner Tibetan Buddhist monk ordained by the Dalai Lama. The New York Times named him the leading American expert on Tibetan Buddhism. Bob was awarded the Padma Shri Award in 2020 for his help in recovering India’s ancient Buddhist heritage. In 1997, Time Magazine chose him as one of the 25 most influential Americans “destined to convey the Dharma, the precious teachings of Shakyamuni Buddha, from Asia to America.”
Author and podcast host Scott Snipe has been a student of Tibetan Buddhism for 25 years.
